At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

When Tang Xianzi saw the appearance of the woman in front of him clearly, his expression almost got out of control.

He had never imagined that the medical officer who could cure his mother's chronic illness and make her eat on her own initiative, and who was widely circulated among the refugees as a goddess who had performed miracles, would be such a young girl!

He had thought she would be an elderly woman with white hair, well-maintained, cunning eyes, and a knack for scheming...

What surprised him even more was that the other person had a pretty face. Even a coarse linen dress and no makeup could hardly hide this stunning face.

Her facial features are delicate and distinct, especially her clear and bright eyes, which are clearly black and white, and shimmering with light, which can make people fall in love with her at first sight.

Her eyebrows are curved like the moon, her eyelashes are thick and long, and her lips are slightly upturned, as if she is always smiling.

Although she is a little petite, she is not timid at all. Her whole body has a pure and extraordinary temperament, and she really looks like a god who has descended to earth.

The only flaw is that her skin is a little sallow, unlike the smooth and creamy skin of the women in Beijing.

Even so, among the hundreds of beautiful and graceful girls he had seen, none of them pale in comparison to the one before him.

Lin Qing was also surprised by Tang Xianzi in front of her.

She thought that this ruthless and ruthless Mr. Tang would be a middle-aged man with a big belly, fat head and big ears like the owner of the candied fruit shop, but unexpectedly he was a young man in his early twenties.

He has an upright posture and an indifferent expression. He is wearing a green robe with green bamboo embroidered on the corners. There is no other accessories except a piece of emerald green jade pendant of excellent quality hanging around his waist. However, he looks even more aloof and indifferent, and does not follow the crowd around him, which complements his modest gentlemanly demeanor.

Coupled with his arrogant attitude of being either rich or noble, and being out of touch with the world, it is obvious at a glance that he is not a native of Anping Town.

Lin Qing became more and more certain of his guess.

He must be an official secretly sent by Kyoto to investigate some secret and important matter!

Seeing that the two seemed to be surprised by each other's looks, the old lady looked at them with satisfaction, then coughed pretentiously to bring their senses back to their senses.

Only then did Tang Xianzi realize how rude his behavior was to stare at the strange girl without blinking, and he quickly apologized.

"It is my fault that I was rude. I never expected that such a young lady could achieve such remarkable medical skills. To be honest, I have consulted many famous doctors in Anping Town to treat my mother's illness, but none of them were effective. I wonder where you live? I will prepare a thank-you gift and personally deliver it to your door."

Lin listened to him addressing her as 'girl', praising her as unique in the world, and thinking back to his astonished look just now, she naturally understood his subtext.

I just want to tease myself.

After thinking for a moment, she left the address of Songshi Village.

When Tang Xianzhi heard that she was from Songsi Village, his expression froze for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself and bowed, saying:

"Although Songsi Village is small, it has nearly a hundred households. Miss, please tell us your name. If we can't find your house, we can ask others.

"There's one more question I'm asking. Do you live with your parents, or are you married? Please forgive me, I'm just worried that if I come to thank you and you happen to be out, who will be able to pass on the message?"

Lin Qing frowned unconsciously.

The Tang Xianzi in front of her was extremely polite in his words, but he looked like he was interrogating a prisoner, which made her inexplicably feel a little resistant.

Without waiting for Lin Qing to reply, the old lady interrupted her son with a look of displeasure on her face, angrily saying, "Xianzhi, this man is my lifesaver, don't torture me with your tactics!"

Torture?

Lin Qing understood. No wonder this Mr. Tang always had such a cold aura.

Seeing the tension between the mother and son, Lin Qing hurriedly said with a smile to ease the atmosphere, "It's okay. I was inconsiderate and didn't introduce them in advance. My surname is Lin, and my courtesy name is Qing. Mr. Tang, please rest assured that if I'm not at home, my son will receive me."

When Tang Xianzi heard that she was already married and had a child, a look of regret unconsciously appeared on his face and he couldn't help but sigh.

Old Madam Tang rarely saw her son lose his composure like this, and she knew exactly what he was thinking.

But instead of stopping it, she was even a little excited inside.

The reason, of course, was that her son was obviously a handsome man, not young at all, and the number of matchmakers in the capital who wanted to propose to him almost broke down the Tang residence, but he was absorbed in the affairs of the court. Every time someone asked him about it, he would say, "How can a grown man get married when he hasn't established his career yet?"

After being evaded so many times, Madam Tang angrily said, "What do you mean by establishing a career? He could have relied on his ancestors' kindness, or at least I could have gotten a lucrative position by begging at the palace. Why does he insist on doing it all on his own? Isn't this a slap in my face?!"

Qing Zhu, who was serving beside her, hesitated to speak. Old Madam Tang looked at her strange expression and said with a hint of displeasure, "Just say whatever you want to say. You've been with me for so long, don't you know my temper?"

Qing Zhu knelt on the ground hurriedly and stammered, "Madam, maybe it's not that the master doesn't want to get married, but that he doesn't have, or doesn't like, women..."

Old Madam Tang was horrified: "Ah?!"

Afterwards, Tang Xianzi was left speechless by his mother's tearful questioning.

She actually asked herself if she was gay!

Tang Xianzi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, but seeing his mother's heartbroken look, in order to resolve her wild worries, Tang Xianzi had to replace all the servants who served him closely, and there was no longer any man under the age of 30 around him.

Butler Liu also came to the Tang Mansion at that time.

Just when Old Madam Tang thought that he would change his ways and go on blind dates, Tang Xianzi actually lived in the yamen for half a year.

It was for this reason that when he came to tell her that he was going to Anping Town to help the emperor solve his problems, Old Lady Tang strongly requested to come with him.

She had a feeling that this trip would solve her son's lifelong problem, and now it turned out to be true!

How could she not be happy that her son was so devoted to Lin Qing?

It's just a pity that my son faced such a dilemma when he fell in love for the first time.

For the sake of her son, she can't just sit back and watch, she has to do something!

Although Old Madam Tang was of noble birth, she had no prejudice against social status. As long as Xianzhi liked her and the two were suitable, she would accept her even if she was the daughter of a butcher or a merchant.

Not to mention a good girl like Lin Qing.

What matters right now is whether his son still has a chance.

If Doctor Lin can get a divorce, then she will wait until she returns to Beijing and go to the palace to ask the Empress Dowager to grant Lin Qing an identity. This way, they can be a match made in heaven and the gossips of others can be stopped. It's the best of both worlds!

The more the old lady thought about it, the better she felt this method was, and she couldn't help laughing out loud.
